The Future Leaders Program, presented by Mumbrella and UK-based firm The Knowledge Engineers, is a three-day intensive mix of group workshops, experiential learning and mentorship aimed at developing the skills needed to lead an agency in the modern-day marketing world.

Designed for senior agency managers and directors, activities will include answering a brief to turn around a failing agency, creating a strategic revenue plan, pitching to a marketing director, and presenting a strategic plan for a client to a panel of judges.

The mentors will be led by chair Lindsey Evans, founder of creative shop Special Group Australia and previously president of TBWA\UK Group. Other mentors include veteran media agency boss James Greet; Ogilvy Public Relations Australia CEO and regional talent director of Ogilvy PR Asia Pacific, Kieran Moore; as well as one of the most-awarded agency business leads in Australia, M&C Saatchi’s managing partner Mim Haysom.
